Accelerator noticed the reason for his hesitation, but he believed that this could not be used as a so-called reason to cover up the real reason.
He swept his gaze around, looking at his classmates with expectant eyes.
[My classmates... unlike me, are all truly aspiring to be heroes]
[Sooner or later, they will have to face the deep darkness of human nature alone]
[Maybe I can't help them much, and I can't guarantee that I can arrive in time, but at least I can give them some more time to prepare and grow]
In the end, he glanced at her next to him, and Ruiko immediately understood his meaning, nodded at him, and signaled that he didn't need to care about her.
Just then, Accelerator changed his usual casual attitude and spoke seriously for the first time.
"Before the start of the second match of the quarterfinals, those rats hiding in the dark made another move."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the atmosphere of the gathering changed.
After all, not long ago, the students present had all experienced the same life-and-death situation [USJ League of Villains attack].
Everyone instinctively recalled the desperate situation they encountered at that time.
After all, that incident didn't happen too long ago.
"Those bottomless scum targeted Ruiko."
"In addition to revenge, there are probably reasons to test my Quirk."
"Anyway, Ruiko was forced to flee to the middle of the ninth district under the circumstances of being blocked from the rescue route in advance."
When they heard the middle of the ninth district, all the students present instinctively widened their eyes.
[That place... Isn't it the center of the major explosion event!]
[Could it be...!]
Ignoring the expressions of his classmates, Accelerator continued to speak on his own.
"And I received the information in time, but I also failed to prevent those scum from setting off a major explosion with the high-explosive bombs they had set up underground in advance."
"Well, in front of me, those scum did not get their wish."
When he said the last sentence, Accelerator didn't notice his twisted smile at the moment.
But the sense of matter-of-factness in his words is so obvious.
Because I, Accelerator, am standing here.
So whether it's the enemy's cunning plot or their despicable and shameless behavior, they're all just rotten fish and shrimp.
At this time, many students' brains were temporarily crashed due to the amount of information in his few sentences.
The amount of information in the words is not much and not difficult to understand. The reason for the crash is the subsequent amount of information represented by it.
Everyone knows how big a public opinion storm the major explosion on the day of the sports festival has stirred up in the entire superhuman society.
And then because of the doubts on the Internet, the official even publicly checked the population data when compensating the innocent people who lost their homes.
They even called on the keyboard warriors to go to the scene in person to help the innocent and donate. The eyes of the public are sharp, and the rhythm deliberately brought up by the malicious ones naturally stopped.
And those students who have truly witnessed even a corner of Accelerator's earth-shattering power can't help but be shocked.
All the people in Class A of U.A. Science are clearer than most people in society about how powerful the big devil Accelerator in their class is, much more intuitive than the outside world's evaluation, but the helpless thing is that this person has been breaking their common sense.
Their common sense can't even keep up with the growth of his power performance.
A few people started from the public recruitment, most people from the Quirk test, and everyone was saved in the event of the League of Villains attacking USJ. Although everyone has not discussed it together, this is a default fact.
Of course, among the students, there are also people who have had similar speculations because of the same performance during the time the big devil disappeared, but they were overturned in an instant.
After all, that is a miracle event in the other world that can rival All Might's debut.
A whole block, except for a few buildings, all bombed into the sky with a terrifying explosion, and all the citizens, no one disappeared or suffered a slightly serious injury, what is this magical fact if not a miracle.
So the nameless hero really exists...
They know from the bottom of their hearts that Accelerator would have no reason to deceive them.
But, when people heard this amazing fact invisibly, the abyss on their path to becoming a hero became deeper and insurmountable.
However, fortunately, everyone to a certain extent, is used to Accelerator's often breaking the norm of the operation, and no one will feel unable to catch up with him or give up becoming a hero.
Speaking of which, this is probably the biggest and purest advantage of the students in Class A as hero students.
Knowing that it is impossible but doing it anyway, is also a hero.
Even if the students are still just seedlings of heroes, everyone has not feared the darkness because of Ruiko's experience, but has aroused everyone's awareness in advance.
A few minutes passed and everyone recovered from the shock. After all, common sense is being broken every day, and if you don't get used to it, your heart can't stand it.
Even some people thought maliciously.
It would be interesting to see Bakugo's expression when he had the chance to know the real reason for Accelerator's absence.
And Bakugo's childhood friend Midoriya thought.
I must not let Kacchan know about this... otherwise... I really don't know if he can take it.
The atmosphere of the party gradually returned to its previous state.
Good at livening up the atmosphere, lively Hagakure Toru said at the right time.
"Alright, when the boat gets to the pier-head, it will go straight."
"Besides Accelerator's withdrawal from the competition, our Todoroki started using flames, didn't it also make everyone very curious at the sports festival!"
As she said, she even slightly imitated Todoroki's tone and actions.
"Hmph, I will never use flames, I can get the final victory with only the power of freezing!"
Perhaps wanting to liven up the atmosphere too much, Hagakure Toru's behavior would have been considered too much by Todoroki in the past.
But now it's completely different.
Her state of mind has undergone a qualitative change.
And with Hagakure Toru's imitation, she remembered what a certain person said when he stood in front of her and faced her father.
Just then, Todoroki's delicate face showed a tempting faint peach blush, she said pretending to be indifferent.
"I am not the me from the past."
"I just got courage from someone."
"Don't think too much!"
But the many girls at the main table are not blind, and they are all young girls with explosive gossip power, so Todoroki's shy and deliberately glanced at Accelerator not far away, their eyesight far beyond ordinary people naturally can't escape.
[Oh? Her last sentence undoubtedly has the taste of a lie!]
